SELF PORTRAIT

Like a praying mantis

she is ready to eat his head

for every word he said

 

Judge and jury

she's in a hurry

to make him wrong

 

So sad inside 

she tries to hide

her faults

by pointing out his

 

Look in the mirror

dear

 

And you will see

just how

ugly

you can be.

Yeah I took a big breath before I hit the submit button Taylor.

I actually wrote it for me. I can be pretty tough on my Beau if he pushes too far.

I generally am easy going...let it flow but I have this Irish side that goes blind at times. Push my buttons too many times and back up Mr.

I am keeping this to help me take a breath and think about what I am about to say when he is knowingly or unknowingly pushing my buttons. ugh?
